What should I do if my baby's foot is burned?

Patient's question:

The day before yesterday, the baby got a burn on the top of their foot and has been using Meibao Moisturizing Burn Ointment. I'm asking about the usage and whether it's necessary to go to the hospital for treatment. If treatment is needed, how long will it take to heal?

Doctor's answer:

Function and Indication: Clear heat, detoxify, relieve pain, promote wound healing. Used for various burns, scalds, and thermal injuries.
Usage and Dosage: For external use. Apply to the burn, scald, or thermal injury wound (thickness less than 1 mm), and change the medication every 4–6 hours. Before applying new medication, remove any residual drug or liquid from the wound. Apply medication to the exposed wound.
Precautions:
1. Use with caution in individuals allergic to sesame.
2. For systemic illness caused by burn wounds, use under the guidance of a burn wet medical technology doctor.
3. High temperatures in summer or repeated squeezing and collision may cause the ointment to become runny, but this change does not affect its efficacy. If this occurs, tighten the tube cap and immerse it in boiling water for several minutes. After removal, invert it and allow it to cool naturally to room temperature to restore its original state.
